While the EU has been pushing European nations into tighter gun restrictions as a result of increased terrorist violence. Read their ridiculous statement about making it harder for law abiding citizens to get firearms will somehow stop the flow of illegal weapons here: http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_IP-16-4464_en.htm

Oh wait, they don't even pretend that their goal is to limit legal firearms: "Mass shootings and terrorist attacks in Europe have highlighted the dangers posed by illegal and legal arms circulating across the EU."

However, the Czech Government has not bought into their bizarro-world logic. Not only have the Czech Govt been fighting the EU's war against guns owners but they seek to expand them. The latest Czech proposal argues that "armed citizens would be the best defense against terror attacks."

Good for them. If anything these recent attacks have shown that the military/police/security forces are unable to provide adequate protections for their citizens.
